So with The Stone Roses just around the corner, I think it would be wrong not to talk about them. I got into this music quite late, i’m 19 now and I got into the music when I was about 16 so it wasn’t so long ago when I was into grime.
The Stone Roses were on of the first bands I listened to when I started getting into guitar music because I was into Oasis and my friend said that The Stone Roses played a big part influencing Oasis, so I went home and treated myself. I never listened to them before, because my mate said they influenced Oasis, I was expecting something exactly like Oasis, and fuck me was I wrong. The Stone Roses were so different, the guitar, Ian Brown’s singing, and the drums were out of this world. Since I listened to them, they have been one of my favorite bands and they always will be.
I wasn’t alive when The Roses came out so I can’t talk about how they changed music, or how it was different to anything I’ve ever listened to. I can say they still sound fresh, they still sound exciting and they still sound new. I don’t think there will be a band like this for a long time.
I still think The Roses will put on a great performance at Heaton Park after all the reviews I’ve read it seems like they won’t let anyone down. Also I think they still have a lot to offer to music and our ears, hopefully they will continue after this reunion and go on to make another album because I don’t think the ‘Second Coming’ was a good send off for one of the greatest bands ever.
To all you lucky fuckers that are going to the gig at Heaton I know you will have a good time, get smashed and do that dance that you can only do when you’re listening to The Stone Roses.
Treat yourself, have a listen.

Você não sabe o que perdeu (You don’t know what you’ve missed)
Pra onde eu vou
Não precisa de dinheiro
Pra onde eu vou
É alegria o tempo inteiro
Se você for
Não vai se arrepender
Mas se não for
O que é que vão dizer?
Você não sabe o que perdeu
Você não viu o que aconteceu
Você não sabe o que perdeu
Você não viu o que aconteceu
I’ll try and do it on the internet 🙂 there must be some site that can exchange them lol.
Sure. But if u need help, I’ll be right here 🙂
Cheers :), how do I put your blog as a link on my page like you have haha
Go to your dashboard>menus. Create a new menu and insert the link there. 🙂
Okay cheers 🙂
I know, probably my third favorite Roses’ one, behind She bangs the Drums and I wanna be adored :).
Nice! Yeah I definitely will :), if I start getting into them you will have to start sending me CD’s haha. Are they big in Brazil?
Hey, no problem, we could have a CD exchange programme 🙂
Haha that would be pretty cool, I wonder how much it would be to get a CD sent over there lol.
Not that much, I guess. I’ve sent things over to my friends in the UK a few times and it’s not that expensive. Well, we can always make a playlist and e-mail it tho lol
Yeah that would probably be easier lol
